Commercial Description:
Tsingtao Beer has a pleasant aroma and a well-balanced taste. It has high-malty flavor and well-hopped character. Tsingtao is produced with spring water from Laoshan, a mountain area famous throughout China for the purity of its water. The domestically-grown hops used to brew Tsingtao are of such high quality that they are also exported to European breweries. Tsingtao also uses the finest yeast and barley imported from Australia and Canada in its brewing process.

April 22nd, 2007 On draft in Guangzhou, China: Not my favorite in China (Pearl River), but it is close. I don’t really consider it beer, but instead fine quality H2O. I drink a lot of it while in China to kill any pesky bacteria growing in my stomach. It has a nice hoppy taste and reminds me of a mediocre version of Stella Artois.

Light and inoffensive. No different than any other light beer out there. I suppose it’s nice on a sunny day. But basically beery fizzy water.

330 mL bottle, 4.5%. Very light gold with a film of head. Mild aroma; grasses and malt. Taste is mild as well, with sweet malt and just the faintest taste of bitter hops. Quite heavily carbonated. Not much finish. Inoffensive, but boring.

Pour was a crystal clear light golden color with a thin, soapy white head that left no lacing. Really rough aroma initially. Really acidic, almost cat piss like aroma comes through with the pour. Goes away as it opens up, but it’s extremely off putting. The flavor is a mild, sweet malt and a bit of yeast. Not terrible. Sweet finish that tried like hell to make up for the bad first impression the aroma gave me.

Golden with an aroma, that has notes of straw and malt. The flavour is non-offending, slightly sweet with notes of malt and a light hoppy bitterness. 2128

Bottle: I sometimes order this instead of Sapporo Black Label at my favorite Sushi restaurant. One day I ordered Sapporo and then Tsing Tao and the waitress was offended and asked what was wrong with the Sapporo. This beer has a pleasing taste with a good heartiness and good carbonation. It is good to cleanse the palate with a plate of sushi.

i have never noticed a bad aroma around this beer. this is a very good beer when pared with certain foods. it has a pleasant fruit taste and is clean and refreshing. it even has a bit of body to it. you could drink this by itself... on a hot day. moderate bubbles. not bad at all. bit of a hidden bite on the tip of the tongue.
